 News was received here this morn ing by mall that a cave occurred at the west end of the Vulture mine at three o'clock Monday afternoon, fill ing d portion of the mine. A man named Alexandro raIenzuello is known to be buried under about 300 feet of dirt. ValenEuel!o was an old worker in the mine and considered a very reliable miner. Sometime ago he left the mine con iderlng it unsafe but recently returned and resumed work at the spot where he met his death, digging unconsciously his own grave. Two other minors, Kirkpatrick and McAllister, had very narrow escape. They jumped away from the place they were work ing just as the accident happened and they were carried by an avalanche of earth down Shute to the lower level where they succeeded in escaping. Kirkpatrick left VuIture for Pheulx al Once, pickering not to risk hlS llie any longer. McAllister is still working in the mine, though in another part. Great excitement prevailed at the time of the cave in. Vaienzuello was a young man 28 yeare old, and has a mother living in Mexico. He was to have bsen married on the a7lh of September, but for some reason II was deferred and,,was to take place to-day, Courier.

Nine carriage loads of picnickers left Tombstone Thursday morning for Cochise Stronghold, to spend the day in rural enjoyment. A beautiful location was selected about half mile above the Tweed house, and camp was pitched beside a running stream beneath the large oaks. But short distance away were caves in the rocks, which were or namented with Indian hieroglyphics. The day was delightfully."- spent in exam ming them, in discussing the refresh ments, in games, target practice, etc. All voted the affair great success, which was mainly due the efforts of Mir. and Mrs. E. B. Gage, who spared no pains to make it so. A pleasant drive home by moonlight closed the days pleasures, and not single accident or unpleasant thing occurred to mar them.

Administration Bat in paying this
tribute to the present Democratic
President the Cleveland convention
did not neglect it, obligation to make
plain statement Of principles and
political purpose, no that the people
might make fair estimate OF their
fidelity to the doctrines Of the party
and the demands of tho Nation upon
its central government At Toledo.
they seem to have considered it about
sufficient to sound the praises of John
Sherman and make . parade OF his
pretensions to the Presidency. What
they had to say about questions OF
National importance was 20 fiimsy and
indefinite - to produce the effect Of
having been introduced a. . mere
prelude to the resolution elaborataly
phrased to make . Sherman boom.
The only thing that was strong and
earnest about the Toledo convention
was ito enthusiastic denomination OF
Governor Foraker. and. no doubt, there
will be q lively contest between him
and the comparatively young and Wig
orous Gubernatorial candidate OF the
Democracy.
But what have the Republican State
conventions to proclaim in the matter
of principle relating to National at
fairsp There Is not one point of van
tage that they. hold in present politics
by virtue of their antecedents or their
record. After quarter of century
of supremacy in central governments
they have left to = Democratic Admin.
istration the task of saving the public
lands from the clutch of spectators,
railroad corporations and foreign syn
dictates. and holding what is left Of
them for the use and occupancy Of the
actual settler. At this late day. and In
the face Of President Cleveland's ring
ing declaration of the National policy
upon that subject the Republicans can
hardly give that issue any prominence
in their repertory. As to honesty and
efficiency in the administration Of pub
lio affairs, 1t Is enough that the people
have had two years experience Of
sound Democratic government to con-
trast with a. many decades Of Repub-
lican corruption and misrule. The
Republican State conventions will have
to occupy themselves chiefly With the
gloriication Of Sherman or . Blaine.

Regularity Of Habit ~ REQUESTS Of Cred-

Regularity Of Habit ~ Requisite Of Cred
liable Work.
All literary men who accomplish
much and maintain their health do their
work in tie morning and do it every
morning. tits the daily task, performed
morning after morning throughout the
year-carsfully. conscientiously, per-
sistently-that tells in great results.
But in order TO perform this task in this
way there must be regular habits Of
sleep. with which nothing shall be al
lowed to interfere. The man who eats
late suppers, attends parties and clubs,
or dimes out every night. can not work
in the morning. Such a man has, in
fact, no time to work in the whole round
of the hours. Late and irregular habits
at night are fatal to literary production
40 . rule. The exceptional cases are
those which have fatal results upon life
in few years.
One thing is certain: No great thing
can be done in literary production with
out habit of some sort and we believe
that all writers who maintain their
health write in the morning. The night
work on daily papers is killing work.
and ought to be followed only few
years by any man. A man who follows
literature should always go to his labor
with willing mind, and he can only
do this by being accustomed to take it
up at regular hours. We called upon
preacher the other day-one of the
most eloquent and able men in the
pulpit Of this State. He was In his
study, which was out Of his house. and
his wife simply had to say that there
was no way by which she could get at
him even II she should wish to see him
herself. He was wise. He had his
regular hours Of labor, which no person
was permitted to interrupt. In the
afternoon he could be seen; in the
morning never. A rule like this IL alb
solutely necessary to every man who
wishes to accomplish much. It's aston
ishing how much . man may accom-
plish with the habit Of doing his utmost
during three or four hours in the morn
ing. He can do this every day. have
his afternoons and evenings to himself,
maintain the highest healra and live

. relief, too. from all temptation TO the
use Of stimulants. By It . mans brain
may become just a. reliable producer
rs his hand. and the cheerfulness and
| healthfulness which 1t will bring to the
mind will show themselves in all the
| issues OF the mind. The writings Of
those contemporaneous geniuses. Scott
and Byron. illustrate this point suffi-
ciently. One is all robust health. the
result of sound habit; the other u all
fever and irregularity. What could Poe

''step out and answer to his name"
"Step out" is the West Point slang for

actually did step out of rank, he was
surprised ct the celebrity with which he
was made to step back. The forma-
ton was for dinner, and we we're re-

the drum corps. with all the accuracy
and beauty of vast machine. Finally
our time came. The plebes at the head
of the column interpreted the meaning
of the command. Forward, march,"
and the procession started for the large
granite structure known as the mess

buttoned full up, the palms Of his hands
to the front and all the while his toes

At the mess hall several tables laden
with substantials. were for the ''beasts, !"
though not many ate heartily. Had
we been allowed to take our eyes from
